1. artificial respiration

   Artificial ventilation (also called artificial respiration) is a means of assisting or stimulating respiration, a metabolic process referring to the overall exchange of gases in the body by pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, and internal respiration. It may take the form of manually providing air for a person who is not breathing or is not making sufficient respiratory effort, or it may be mechanical ventilation involving the use of a mechanical ventilator to move air in and out of the lungs when an individual is unable to breathe on their own, for example during surgery with general anesthesia or when an individual is in a coma or trauma.

1. artificial respiration

   Artificial respiration is a method or procedure of assisting or stimulating respiration in a person who is unable to breathe independently. This could involve the use of devices like ventilators, or techniques such as mouth-to-mouth resuscitation or chest compressions, to maintain oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the person's body. The purpose is to provide adequate levels of oxygen to the brain, heart, and other vital organs until appropriate medical treatment can restore normal breathing.

1. Artificial respiration

   Artificial respiration is the act of assisting or stimulating respiration, a metabolic process referring to the overall exchange of gases in the body by pulmonary ventilation, external respiration, and internal respiration. Assistance takes many forms, but generally entails providing air for a person who is not breathing or is not making sufficient respiratory effort on their own. Pulmonary anton ventilation is achieved through manual insufflation of the lungs either by the rescuer blowing into the patient's lungs, or by using a mechanical device to do so. This method of insufflation has been proved more effective than methods which involve mechanical manipulation of the patient's chest or arms, such as the Silvester method. It is also known as Expired Air Resuscitation, Expired Air Ventilation, mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, rescue breathing or colloquially the kiss of life. Artificial respiration is a part of most protocols for performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation making it an essential skill for first aid. In some situations, artificial respiration is also performed separately, for instance in near-drowning and opiate overdoses. The performance of artificial respiration in its own is now limited in most protocols to health professionals, whereas lay first aiders are advised to undertake full CPR in any case where the patient is not breathing sufficiently.
